Device Add-Ons
To remotely control, transfer files or push settings to Android 5.0 devices or higher, please make sure the device is supported. In some cases this functionality requires the installation of a TeamViewer Addon application on the end user’s Android device. Please note that for Samsung devices, the Knox API is being utilized and no AddOn installation is required.
The Add-On is not a stand-alone App and must be installed with the Host App (minimum version 13.2). On supported devices, this Add-On will be available through the Host App automatically via Google Play Store.
Add-On Downloads
In cases where Add-Ons are not available in the Play Store, customers will need to request the .APK from one of our mobile device experts by submitting a ticket, attaching the TeamViewer log files from the Android device. You can find it by tapping the gearwheel icon then choose Log files:
